This shitty human being is only saying what a small but significant chunk of our species already thought before he said it.

Holocaust denial isn’t new 😕

The fact that your assessment is accurate deeply saddens and infuriates me.

I want Star Trek humanity.

When the fuck are we going to stop being savages and be a civilization on the verge of faring space.

God we are so depressing.

How can these people believe in a magical sky daddy who punishes finite sins with infinite torture while somehow being “benevolent”… with no evidence… purely on faith…

Then turn around and deny an internationally documented holocaust with thousands of pictures and weeks of footage…

And think they’re going to be rewarded with eternal bliss after death — not just in spite of these beliefs, but because of them…

I’m embarrassed to even be the same species as these “people”.

“Concentrate” them huh…

Like… in some sort of “camp”?

How do lawyers get cases in France?

Are they assigned to them or do they pick them or do clients pick what lawyers they want?

Honestly, even if he picked the case for whatever reason… just hearing the stories and seeing any of the evidence would drive most sane people to suicidal ideation I think.

It seems like the lawyer wanted to be a good person but felt evil for having represented that monster, and I don’t blame him.

Look at that little girl’s face.

These are people. Just people.

It’s not their fault for being born in Gaza.

How can we still be committing genocide in the 21st century?

What is wrong with us.

That child is growing up in a genocide.

If it was me:

As a trans army veteran, this shit is so infuriating and exhausting to me it’s almost fucking surreal.

We have pedophilic draft dodgers running our government into the ground, anti-social robber barons throwing gasoline on the cultural firestorm with social media algorithms, ICE agents disappearing asylum seekers to be tortured in foreign lands without due process, speakers and representatives bringing nothing but bullshit excuses or outright lies to the table, which of course has our country’s reputation stewing in a trailer park septic tank…

… Meanwhile these insane religious sects are ignoring all of that and hyperfixating on queer people accusing US of pedophilia and calling for our deaths… while they themselves are participating in pedophile rings that often slaughter children once they age out of being attractive to kiddy fuckers.

What kind of “society” are we trying to make here exactly?

At some point the people with empathy have to do violence on the people without.

We outnumber them. Don’t base it on online. Base it on in person. Online is OVERRUN with bots and trolls. It’s not fucking real. It’s a big fucking lie to scare you into giving up.

Don’t.

The correct answer is fuck whoever took this picture.

“Sir what would you say to extremist groups like the Proud Boys?”

“Proud Boys, stand back and stand by”

…

They stood by.

Through counter-intelligence, it should be possible to pinpoint potential troublemakers, and neutralize them.

I’ve been waiting for a big false flag attack to be used as an excuse to ramp things up and possibly declare martial law.

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

You’re right! Big money and big tech are largely to blame for this! They turned the most used/viewed apps, platforms, and cable tv programs into breeding grounds for disinformation and rage bait and steadily increasing dehumanizing rhetoric.

The fall of democracy via cronyism, eroding of checks and balances, and disillusion of trust in institutions — most benefits corrupt oligarchs and aspiring autocrats.

Our country is being gutted by antisocial robber barons and power tripping rapists.

The villains are in control.

“This isn’t the change I voted for”

is code for:

“I thought I was voting for other people’s hardship and suffering”

I’m aware of all of that.

The Arab-Israeli civil war of 1948 (Arabs call it the Nakba) actually started because of the first rejection by the Arabs of a peaceful two state partition.

In the Palestinian mind, right from the start of the Balfour Declaration in 1917, the British and the European Jews were seen as an invading force, and the formation of Israel was seen as the entrenchment of that invading force.

Prior to the Balfour Declaration and British backed migration of the European Jews, the Arabs outnumbered the Jews 10 to 1 in that region, and it was unofficially considered to be their lands. They saw the mass migration as an invasion and a threat to their sovereignty and culture, as peoples generally do.

Today only 44% of people living within the territory of Palestine are Arabs, and 52% are Jews.

Based on these numbers it would seem they were right to be afraid.

Actually, technically, officially

“Israel” (declared may 1948) existed before “Palestine” (declared 1988).

The Jews and the Arabs have both been there for millennia, and the land has been contested since the dawn of recorded history.

It was originally called Canaan in the late Bronze Age (1500 - 1200 BCE).

Then in the Iron Age it was called Judea.

Then the Romans conquered the land and called it Syria Palestina (the land of Syrian “Phillistines”, aka uncultured/uncivilized people.)

Later that evolved into Palestine, which wasn’t codified until 1988, 40 years after the formation of Israel.

Both peoples have been there for millennia, both peoples have been committing atrocities on one another, and both peoples have a legitimate claim to the land.

This isn’t a simple black and white issue with good guys and bad guys. Claiming Israel is the bad guys because they’re the current aggressors, is like walking in on a fight and accusing the one who’s currently winning of being the whole reason for the fight in the first place.

You have to know the whole story, unbiased, looking from both sides, to understand a current conflict.

These lands and these people’s need outside arbitration.

They’re incapable of coming to a peaceful solution on their own. They’re too proud and they both feel too entitled and righteous.

One of them is currently more monied and has more support from imperialist governments, but they’ve both done horrible things to one another and ended millions of eachothers lives over millennia.

Israel is trying to put an end to it forever in the most effective way they can think of.

Violence.

It’s not fair.

If you study history, you will see not much about us is fair.

In recent times we have become abnormally civilized, but only just barely.

Should European-Americans all “just relocate” since we occupied North America from the Native Americans?

Otherwise I don’t see how you’re any different than the Israelites.
